Synthesis and propagation of complement C3 by microglia/monocytes in the aging retina.
<h4>Introduction</h4>Complement activation is thought to contribute to the pathogenesis of age-related macular degeneration (AMD), which may be mediated in part by para-inflammatory processes. We aimed to investigate the expression and localization of C3, a crucial component of the compl...
